That's what folks forget. Fox can't just automatically say we'll put x games on FS1 and nothing on Big Fox. Big Ten very well might not take that. And I don't think it's realistic to say that they would take too kindly to being what would in essence be 2nd fiddle to the Big East- with Big East getting Big Fox exposures and Big Ten not. That won't fly.
I see your strawman game is still going strong. Nowhere did I say that the Big East would be on FOX more than the Big Ten in my last post. All I said was that there is more potential content for FS1 meaning that FOX could take more weekend games. That goes for us.
And I'm sorry, but you're absolutely incorrect about the B1G having control over television schedules, too. Every single conference is at the mercy of it's broadcast partner when it comes to which games will be when. I'm not sure you understand that the conferences, even the major conferences, don't have much leverage when it comes to scheduling their games for tv.

I don't think UNC/USC or TCU/Minnesota was a better game than Michigan/Utah.

The #2 team in the country on the ropes isn't a better game?

Harbaugh who? Michigan-Utah draws 2.1 overnight on FS1. That figure projects to be the network's most-watched college football game ever
